• Shopp, osCommerce, magento, YAK, eShop, e-commerce themes, etc.

What’s new in 3.8?

• Custom Post Types / Taxonomies• Tax System completely overhauled• UI Overhaul (Products, categories, variations)• Almost 200 filters/actions• WP Themes• More info? Getshopped.org• Feeling brave?

• http://svn.wp-plugins.org/wp-e-commerce/branches/3.8-development

How do I build on it?

• Like WP, WPeC is a platform• Remember the hooks (actions/filters)?
